GELID Solutions FN-TX12-15 120mm Case cooler

Pros: Thees fans are completely silent. I have 4 in my case sitting 2 feet away from my head and I can't even begin to hear them.

Come with a temp sensor to dictate what RPM to run at. Even at higher RPM's the fans are still pretty much silent.

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: Could have came with screws along with the rubber connectors. The rubber are nice for sound dampening, but they look goofy sticking up out of the top of my case.

Pros: Thermistor is on a lead.
Adjusts in small increments based on temp.
More sensitive to small temperature changes than a PWM fan.
Can easily position the sensor to leave it hanging in the open case air to adjust speed based on ambient temp.
Long enough to place it closer/on your CPU or GPU heatsink for more agressive temp adjustments.

Cons: A little slower to respond than PWM fans because it is temp based not load or CPU sensor based. Not really a flaw, just the nature of the design. Be aware of the differences before you purchase so that you are using a fan that is 'fit for purpose'.

Other Thoughts: Best used as an exhaust fan. These are great for general purpose cooling of your PC based on temp, regardless of heat source. GPU load, or CPU load, or both...it will create enough heat to effectively spin this fan up as needed.

Pros: Very quiet, works well.

Cons: 3 pin power connector ONLY. make sure you have a spot open on your motherboard, because you'll have to do some modification if you want to run this directly off your PSU.

Also, wish it came with fan screws. the rubber tabs are kinda cool, and help with sound, but it would be nice to have the option of using fan screws. (especially since it would cost them all of what, $0.02 to throw 4 screws in the box?)

Other Thoughts: Does what it's supposed to do, just feel like if I'm buying a nice fan, it should have the same power options / mounting options that the cheaper ones would have :/

Pros: Very Quiet. Easy Instal. No Screws required. Long sleeved connectors. Oh and did I mention Quiet!

Cons: The Temp Control Sensor is kind of long....

Other Thoughts: I have 3 of these inside my CM690 Case too provide airflow for my i7 2700k. They work great and are really quiet. Now i hear my Zalman 9700nt heatsink only. Soon to be liquid cooled.

Pros: QUIET, COOL, look great

Cons: none.

Other Thoughts: Have to sometimes check if they're on due to them being so quiet.

Pros: I installed two of these in a Cooler Master Elite 330 two years ago, one in the front and one in the back. They still run quietly, even when they speed up.

The cable for the temperature sensor is wrapped and long enough to place it away from the fan.

I love a quiet computer and these are a great fit.

Cons: None.

Other Thoughts: I will be ordering more for a recent build.

Pros: Quiet, cheap, easy. It's quieter than any of my other case fans and works exactly as expected.

Cons: None.

Pros: Cheap enough. Decent fan, and better then my stock case fans on a Cooler Master 690, but not by much really.

Cons: NOT very quiet. I prefer Noctua fans that are MUCH smoother and quiet. I got what I paid for, and have since purchased more Notuas. Just thought I would report back.

I was sucked into the hopes of a quiet fan for cheap. It didn't pan out that way.

Other Thoughts: I haven't found fans with as nice of bearings as the Noctuas, but haven't tried a lot since and will pay the extra for the quiet and smoothness in the future. They do cost twice as much but I like the quietness.

Pros: Solid construction/design
Thermal probe
Included rubber mounts
Braided lines

Cons: Thermal probe could be longer

Other Thoughts: So I bought this fan nearly two years ago and never really reviewed it so I figured a long term review could be helpful. I used this fan to replace the somewhat lower quality fan in my psu after it gave out and it has worked extremely well over the last two years. My main pull for this fan was the thermal probe which I placed in the heatsink for the +12v rail I run most of my components off of and unless I'm gaming or encoding a ton of video the fan rarely spins up past base speed. I have to say I am very pleased with this fan and plan on purchasing a couple more when my current case fans kick the bucket.

Pros: Well it works its weird seeing it go so slow in the beginning, but when the case heats up it speeds up and starts pushing. Easy installation once you figure it out.

Cons: They need instructions on mounting and for beginners an indicator of which way it is pushing air. I would hate for someone to install it backward

Other Thoughts: Cool sticker for you case badge people
